      Not the place to work for junior engineers

      Pros

      Great benefit package 9/80 schedule Everyone gets some sort of cash bonus.

      Cons

      No structure to train young engineers straight out of college. New grads are expected to "make things" happen with minimal instructions. There is a constant dash to meet the deadlines on government projects so no grooming occurs. Some management is actually verbally abusive.
